The destroyer Marshal（元帅，司仪） Shaposhnikov approached the drifting tanker with 23 Russians on board overnight and released the crew, officials said.

The tanker was captured in the Gulf3 of Aden as it sailed for China.

The vessel4, owned by the Russian company Novoship, is flying the Liberian flag.

"Pirates have released the tanker... All crew on board the tanker are alive and well," a spokeswoman for the shipping5 company told Reuters news agency.

"During more than 20 hours of siege（围攻，包围） , pirates were not able to take a single member of crew hostage."

The company said the crew were in a safe room that was inaccessible6 to the hijackers.

The Marshal Shaposhnikov was dispatched（派遣） on Wednesday to rescue the tanker.
